At least 10 of those could be regular 2x weekly schedule flights in the summer
ReplyDeleteImpressive
ReplyDeleteRes impresivno!"! Kaj pa redne linije? Čarterje v glavni sezoni ima vsako podeželsko letališče.
DeleteI'm surprised by all the France charters!

Deleteairport says also charter(s) to SKP??
ReplyDeletein general impressive indeed
Delete150k is very good especially the variety but in total its not that much bigger then some exyu airports which have only Antalya at 90-100k
ReplyDeleteQuite interesting destinations! Some of the Spanish I've never even heard of!
ReplyDeleteBecause some of these spanish airports don't have scheduled commercial flights, like Albacete. Nice to see charters there.
DeleteAlbacete looks like a one-off to me: "Tal y como detalló Ignacio Tárraga, presidente de la Asociación de Agencias de Viajes de Albacete, están ya confirmadas salidas a Eslovenia el 19 agosto."
DeleteThat is to say that Trade Air flies to 40-50 destinations from Ljubljana? 😁
ReplyDeleteNo, one of tourist agencies has a new partner :)
DeleteWho?
DeleteI saw that Electra Airways operated a Trade Air flight to the Azores. Will it still fly from Ljubljana?
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean there will be Zanzibar again soon? I wish there was one to the Seychelles like Adria in the 90s.
ReplyDeleteSal, Horta, Lajes, Ponta Delgada are also distant charters.
DeleteThats actually very impressive
ReplyDeleteOver OTP, SOF, BEG, ATH, BUD, VIE by leisure destinations 😁😁😁😁
ReplyDeleteI've flown on Trade Airs 'Luka' a couple of times. It has one of the worst seat pitch of any airline I've flown. Wizz feels like economy plus compered to them.
ReplyDeleteWhat does it offer during the flight? If you traveled on their flight. If it is ACMI the product is different.
DeleteHigher standard of living, more flights. The reason we don't have that many charters from PRN! Admirations LJU!
ReplyDeleteTHE higher, THE more...
DeleteAs the colleague above said, some Spanish and Portuguese destinations could easily work. Why not Egypt and more flights to Turkey for example with Sun Express.
ReplyDeleteWhat exactly makes you colleagues? You guys grew up together, went to school together, what?
DeleteIn Ex-Yu website;)
DeleteDoesn't Sun Express focus on the German market?
Deleteno but Germany is the biggest market for every turkish airline
DeleteWhat do you think about this year? Doesn't look bad?!?
ReplyDeleteI would also be happy to see something like Male, Punta Cana, Mauritius, Seychelles, Thailand. It's not impossible.
ReplyDeleteWe'd need some widebody charters in that case. Atm, all we have is Trade Air's A320
DeleteSelect charters will be operated by widebody.
DeleteAnd there it is... a charter hub 😂
ReplyDeleteWell, that's what it looks like according to the article. The new Katowice! 😁
DeleteAt this point, fraport leasing 2 A320 and providing their own capacity would be profitable xD
ReplyDeletelot of these are with low frequency. KEF is "only" 3 flights, Zakintos 2, from what I see
ReplyDeleteZakynthos should be all summer, but I could be wrong.
DeleteYeah 3 or 2 weekly so thats pretty good if u ask me for leisure destinations
DeleteKEF is 3 flights for the whole season
DeleteYes but destinations like Greek islands, Egypt, Tunisia and similar are like 2 weekly
DeletePatras and Araxos are the same thing
ReplyDelete+1
DeleteBravo Fraport.
ReplyDeleteIzgleda, da so na tem portalu zbrani samo ljubitelji čarterjev in LCC.
DeleteWish we have from Sweden also!
ReplyDeleteMaybe Eurowings, SAS or Norwegian will apply for subsidies
DeleteWhich subsidies? There was no news about the last tender
DeleteSuperb. E to je standard. Araxos is less than 50 km from Patras.
ReplyDeleteStill nothing to Manchester/Liverpool.
ReplyDeleteAny details on the charters to Rotterdam? Can't find who carries out these flights
